Review of Piranha 3D (2010) by Brad G — 04 Oct 2011
Director Alexandre Aja (High Tension, The Hills Have Eyes remake, Mirrors) knows just what kind of movie he's concocting with Piranha 3D: a beautiful, exploitative T&A bloodbath that utilizes 3D gimmicketry in a way that films like Avatar, How To Train Your Dragon, and Clash of the Titans have no hope of understanding.
It's not about depth of field and being part of the environment--it's about Those F'ing Piranhas (and those floating human body parts) Coming Right At Ya!!!! Sure, I wish the film followed Elisabeth Shue, Ving Rhames, and Christopher Lloyd instead of lame-o teen characters Stephen R.
McQueen and Jessica Szohr but 3D Jerry O'Connell is terrifyingly hilarious and all that exploitation can make you forgive typically lame horror teens. Not VF.
